I can't control my emotions

[Clumping]

I hope I don't sound dramatic but here goes

Lately I find it hard to really hard to control my emotions I guess is the best way to put it. I get angry over the most ridiculous things, I start crying and feeling overwhelmed quite easily, and just feeling crap for a while. It's both at work and at home, and bursting into tears in work is embarrassing and I imagine the people I work with are probably bored of seeing it. I feel overwhelmed thinking about going to work too lol. I know my job is not particularly what I want to do and I'm looking for other work, which isn't that easy (I currently work in a contact centre).
So overall I know my job is a big player in how I feel, but it's me in my own head as well if that makes sense, and find myself bursting into tears most days, and this constant feeling of anxiety or panic is hanging around.

I feel like if I talk to someone it could be brushed off as 'I need to grow a thicker skin' - which yes I realise I may need to.


Hope it's not too much, I welcome your thoughts, I just needed to get this off my chest!!

If I'm ever about to get mad I just try and rationalise the situation in my head and then I usually realise getting angry wont acvtually help at all

Call centres are really ****** places to be too so could you look elsewhere for employment?

Sounds like you need to express your feelings to someone. Perhaps talk to someone.

Honestly, it sounds like you're having manic depression issues or even bipolar disorder. You might even be over-stressed. There's nothing wrong with talking to someone about how you're feeling, as a matter of fact if anything it would probably help you a lot if you did. Just make sure it's someone who you're comfortable with talking to and that they're understanding. Or maybe even someone else who can relate to how you're feeling. If you think you're legit depressed you should see a doctor about it, if anything you could just be suffering from bad anxiety.

I had felt like that when I worked at a contact center and I totally understand where you are coming from. Something that I did when I started going down the same path was reach out to friends, and family for the relational side of what I was lacking. I think what makes Contact centers so hard is the lack of interacting with people... in a sense of physical interactions.
Talking with friends, and family- Just having the physical interactions helped me a lot.
Taking a nice walk, fresh air, a nice cup of tea and relaxation!

It just sounds like you need to talk to someone. It's never good to bottle everything up. If you ever want to talk don't be afraid to pm me x
